Entries are invited for the USAID YouthLead Photo Contest 2019. Showcase your work globally! This photo contest provides you, as a young changemaker, a global platform to show the impact of your changemaking activities. They will award ten prizes to the best photos that demonstrate how the applicants’ work creates a positive impact in their community.

They are looking for creative and high-quality photos that tell a powerful story of how you are achieving impact in your community, however you define that community—your neighborhood, your district, your school or university, your country….or the planet.
